Hi there, I’m Jen, a Toronto Wedding Photographer - thank you for stopping by!


Photography has always been a way for me to hold onto the moments that matter most—the raw, unfiltered bits of life that tell our stories. I started my journey in wedding photography over 14 years ago, inspired by a desire to capture the people and love in my own life in a way that felt honest. I've been part of the wedding world since I was just a little 20-year-old baby. I started as a musician and a makeup artist; I loved being part of so much excitement but once I found my way into photography I found that it was the act of storytelling that truly filled my soul. So, I picked up a camera, learned everything I could, and never looked back.


My approach is candid, documentary, and unposed whenever possible (don't worry, I do still gently guide wedding & family portraits when appropriate). I believe that every emotion is deeply beautiful and important. When I photograph a wedding or a family, I’m fully invested in telling the story I'm witnessing, not just snapping pictures. I won't manipulate the scene or push you into poses that don’t feel right; I want your photos to reflect who you truly are. Authentic and honest storytelling is the most important thing to me as a creative.


Outside of photography, I’m a mom to twins, wife to a very tall ginger who is my opposite in the best possible way, a traveler, a friend, a tumbleweed, and the proud owner of an old mutt named Bowie.


Whether you’re planning a wedding or just want to document a slice of your life, I’m here to help you tell your story in the most honest and FUN possible. Let’s create something real together. Drop me a line!

Jennifer is incredible, simply put. We had originally scheduled our wedding for 2020 but when COVID hit we postponed for a year. Throughout all the twists & turns when it came to constantly changing rules and regulations, Jen was a total pro in her approach to making sure we were aware of the situation and what, realistically, we could expect for our wedding. She was fantastic to chat with throughout the entire process. We had our eye on Jen early on in our engagement and we are extremely happy we ended up deciding to go with her. She is fantastic behind the camera and is an absolute joy to work with. We would recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional photography skills, a passion for weddings, and a bubbly and fun personality.

Jen is hands down THE BEST in the business. When searching for a photographer to capture our big day we were overwhelmed, so many great options. However, we kept coming back to one profile specifically and that was Jen. Once we connected there were no questions, she was our person! Jen is incredible, she is everything you want in a photographer (and more) with a bubbly personality, kind, and warm putting you at total ease. She cares about her clients and the quality of work and captures truly the most amazing moments. If you're looking to hire a photographer, you won't find anyone better.

Jen couldn't have captured our wedding day at the Broadview Hotel more perfectly. She is such a fun and relaxed person, and fit right in with our wedding party and family. My husband Steven and I were totally blown away by our wedding pictures. There are soo many good shots...it's impossible for us to pick a favourite. We also loved that Jen not only sent a few sneak peak pictures a few days after the wedding but also spent the time to put together a slide show while the rest of our photos loaded. She updated us every step of the way so we were never left wondering when we would actually receive the pictures from our special day. We would highly recommend Jen to anyone looking to have a special moment in their life captured!
